Another big exhibition at Christian Aldo’s Super Wonder Gallery opens this Friday. The Super Super Show will feature over 50 artists taking on the larger-than-life world of comic books. Impresario Aldo directed participating artists thus:
We are living in turbulent times! WHO WILL SAVE US?!
NOW, more than ever, we need our SUPER HEROES!
And for those of us who are EVIL, we need our SUPER VILLAINS!
My own contribution is Henchmen, the first large painting I have done since 2008. It’s a sinister piece with a psychedelic cartoon feel, equal parts Yellow Submarine, Clockwork Orange, and the 1960s Batman television show.
